re: #21 Dark_Falcon

I’ve thought about this and I’ve got an idea that would put the NRA on the spot:

Joe Biden should ask the NRA to put someone they’d accept as ATF director. Give them a guarantee of a hearing and committee vote and if they pass that vote no fillibuster. That would force the NRA to put someone forward and if they put forward some nut he could be attacked in the hearings and then simply voted down. If they somehow put forward a sane person, then the ATF has a director. Either way, it will force action.

Nice strategic thinking, but the NRA doesn’t deserve the consideration it would show them.
